You are not making any sense, and literally won't understand if you never got beat-up physically in life, perhaps as a kid, and preferably more than once. One has to experience pain first-hand to empathize with it. You must have lived an extremely sheltered life for this to not happen to you, and so you don't understand. Your nihilism doesn't relate with people.

Yes, plants react functionally to damage, but in no way has any shred of consciousness been demonstrated in plants. You are just out to seek any excuse necessary to kill animals and perhaps humans too, with no difference.

You are not making any sense. Perhaps consciousness hasn't been demonstrated in plants because we don't have the correct definition of consciousness or are looking for the wrong things. Why do you have this arbitrary bias towards animals? Perhaps it's time to re-examine your fundamental assumptions.
